We had amazing service from Dale this morning when he emptied our septic! Fast, tidy professional and helpful suggestions! It only took an hour or so, and we'll gladly tell everyone here in fallbrook! When we were comparing prices and looking for fast response, the gal who booked it through Bobs plumbing was kind and funny. It was far more pleasant than most calls, in a tough plumbing year, on very limited budget as a retired poor health couple! We are grateful to you both, and despite distance from us, you'll be our forever choice!

We had Modern Septic Service out for the first time to have our septic tank pumped. The tech, Dale was friendly, fast and professional. He took care of business in about 30 minutes and left with a smile and a "have a good day". I would definitely recommend!

Tim, and it's fantastic to hear you are satisfied! It sounds like the team did it again. Friendliness, efficiency and perfection are important to us.
We believe that hidden fees are a horrible way to run a business. We rather win our customers by offering the best service. It's wonderful that the team exceeded your expectations, and your recommendation speaks about the quality of their service. We can't be happier. We hope to see you in 3 to 5 years for an other septic cleaning. - Valerie B.Descanso, CA86Apr 11, 2024
I received five personal recommendations before I called Kathy at Modern Septic. Kathy was friendly and professional in finding out our needs and our availability. Lucky for us, they had a same day appointment available. Knowing our need to fast service due to a clogged drain, Kathy then call us back and let us know that we had a chance to have an earlier appointment. That was great service.
Danny was the technician that came out to do our pumping. We had not used the company before and my husband had a lot of questions. Danny answered every single one of them. After the pumping was finished, Danny went over the bill and suggestions for the future. There were no surprises financially. Danny was kind and thorough.
We live in the mountains & there are several businesses that will not service our area. Modern septic fulfilled our needs & did it with five star service.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

We a fabulous experience working with Dale on a pump/dump/cert inspection of a septic tank in El Cajon. Dale was professional, helpful and nice to work with. And if anyone is wondering, Dale's favorite coffee is a Starbucks caramel macchiato. Great experience. Will definitely work with again as well as refer to others. Thank you.

This business is now under new ownership and I can say Tamar and his colleague have turned it around. Very communicative and professional. Most of these businesses are archaic and unprofessional to today's standards, but these guys are keeping pace. Will do business again.

I've never had a septic tank before so this was my first experience pumping it after one of our drains started having issues. Modern Septic Service responded almost instantly to my inquiry and was over at my house within a few hours. My technician was John and he was very knowledgeable and so sweet! It turns out the previous owners of our home had also used Modern Septic Service so it was a nice coincidence and testament to the quality of their work. Will definitely be using them from now on for all of our septic needs!
